Introduction



This file contains the known descendants of John I. Smith.  This family intermarried with the Mummey family in Morgan County, Ohio.  Five of the interrelated families moved to Iowa in 1863. 

When a marriage between the families occurs, the spouse’s and children’s names will be linked.  The children will be assigned numbers in both files, but further generations will be listed only in the Mummey line.  The child’s name, not its number, will be linked.

Much of this information comes from an articlepublished on the family.
